Ex-Trump cabinet secretary Kristi Noem proved her poor geography skills on live TV, and online commentators let her have it.
During an interview, the former Department of Homeland Security chief flubbed as she answered NEWSMAX anchor Greta Van Susteren’s question, “Who is our best friend in South America at this point?”
Noem responded, “We’ve worked so much with El Salvador,” and “Costa Rica has been fantastic.”
On X, onlookers mocked the former DHS chief for not knowing that those countries are in Central America, not South America.
“Can someone buy these idiots a map?” political strategist Mike Nellis demanded.
South Dakota-based political writer Michael Freeman pleaded, “Please don’t judge the schools of my home state of South Dakota by the former governor.”
“There was a time, kids, when government officials could find different countries on maps,” lamented podcaster Hemant Mehta.
